    Hi all

    haven't been on in a while as been manic but have started building the vivacity again.after god knows how many months lol

    i have since put a new loom in the vivacity as the original one was cut and chopped a few times, the only difference between the looms is the new one has a different peugeot immobilised cdi and a smaller voltage regulater.

    i have done a cdi sway to a motoforce racing cdi following this

    http://elystar.ardane.com/nonchipkey-en.htm

    but i have no spark, i have double checked the wiring to the cdi and it is exactly how it should be, its a new spark plug aswel

    what is the next port of call to look at? As im stumped and getting frustrated lol

    Which immobiliser did the Viva have originally, the AEC 400 or the ACI 100? The two units work a little differently.

    Have you checked this page? http://stenberg.dk/ACE400.htm

    It originally had ACI100 cdi but since got a donor vivacity with better loom with the AEC400 cdi

    With the AEC400 cdi do I just run stator wire to the ignition instead of the left over wire I have from the cdi?

    Yea I'm pretty sure it's an AEC400 as looks the spitting image of the one in the post that was linked

    I have replaced my stator to a 4 wire one which has the seperate red/black wire

    I will try fit original one tonight and rewire the cdi as is suggested in the link and see if I get a spark :)

    Here's some pictures of cdi that was on the diner vivacity

    Rechecked all wiring and it is how it should be following the write up

    There are 3 wires I have left from the original CDI which are: red, blue (which I assume are immobiliser light) and a black wire which becomes a positive feed when ignition is switched on, is this meant to be wired to anything if I'm bypassing to a basic CDI?

    3 wires?,red.ignition....blue.immobiliser warning light....bkack.indicator warning lights.,
    Fraid,can't be more help,mate..can't take pic of my own cdi,as had a bit of an off monday,right shoulder seized/left hand 20% movement...can't even hold a b.screwdriver right now.:eek:,
    Best of luck.mk.

    Ah so is an ACI100, must be old style or even a bypass unit as there is nowhere for the immobiliser ring to plug into the CDI :confused:

    Even so after wiring up a bAsic CDI I should get a spark as it's all been bypassed :confused:

    As I have converted from ACI100 to basic do I have to make my ignition look like this from the back?

    As the write up I followed only converts ignition to 4 wires (red, black, green and black and grey) and not additional red/black wire

    On mine,it's just unplug old,plug in new (nothing else,needed to be done)-(immobilse ancilleries,now irrellevent),
    never even seen back of my ignition switch.....though the bypass converted it,to an on/off switch only.,on being signified.by fuel gauge coming on-line.mk.

    I haven't wired my stator to my ignition as write up only mentioned a black/grey wire :confused:

    Do you reckon that could be my problem?

    I have run the red/black stator wire straight to the cdi, is that right?

    This is what I followed and I have triple checked it and I'm getting no spark
